RussianLegal defended the interests of the client in a dispute worth 750 million rubles

The Arbitration Court dismissed recovery suit of 7,357,000 EUR from our principal, the Austrian company E&A Beteiligungs GmbH. The opponents were trying to foreclose on an office building in the center of Moscow owned by the client (Case No. A40-306214/2023)

The Law Office's lawyers managed to prove that the “agreements” under which the claims were made were signed by an unauthorized person who acted in collusion with the Bulgarian “partners” to the detriment of the client.

The case was specific due to the simultaneous application of Austrian and Bulgarian law, as well as the presentation by the opponents of documents drawn up many years ago and containing atypical conditions for the “restructuring” of the so-called debt. In the current circumstances, the Law Office's attorneys had to put a great deal of effort into gathering evidence and obtaining legal opinions in foreign jurisdictions in order to ultimately demonstrate to the court the plaintiff's bad faith.
